Abstract (en)

A process for improving the fluidising properties of material in the bed of a fluidised-bed roaster, said material including particles in fine, intermediate, and coarse size ranges, is characterised by increasing the proportion of material of intermediate size range therein. The advantages that can be gained by increasing the proportion of material in the intermediate particle size range include better gas and solid contacting, and an improvement in the ability of the bed to carry a greater proportion of coarse lumps as well as rejecting the fine sticky particles.
